DR. F. A. Marden, of the incorporators of
the Wisconsin Veterans Home, said recently:
I'm searching through the poor houses of the
State for needy veterans, have stumbled
upon some very remarkable cases. One in par
tcular was very pathetic. An old war-scarred
veteran of many battles, now past eighty years
ola, was found, together with his wife, on a
poorfarm of county in the interior of the
State When asked why he die not go to the
soldiers Home, the aged soldier, with trembling
voice, said, pointing to his wife: What would
become OF the old womang We have been to-
gether great many years. She stood by me
through my younger days, when / was prosper
ous and while was fighting for my country.

old woman and me will stick together till one or

Mrs. LincOln's joke.

A gentleman of this city. who WAS formerly a
resident of Wheeling, W. Va. said yesterday:

time Miss Rldglay, of Springfield, whore she

feared assassination, Mrs. Dodge received from
Mrs. Lincoln bouquet in paper box. without
any explanatory note or card accompanying it.
We consulted over this present for some time

She wrote In answer that the bouquet signified

directors offered repeatedly to increase it, but
he declined He had numerous offers as high
$5O, GOO year to go to other roads, but he never
hesltated to refuse them. One reason, probably,
was because his salary was a mere bagatele to
him. He knew all the ms and outs of Baltimore
investments, and he made money rapidly all the

MRS. HooPER's FUNERAL.
A Large Number of Friends Pay
Their Last Tribute.

The funeral of the late Mrs.
w. H. Hooper took place at
the family residence on North
First West street this morning at
IL O'Clock and was attended by large
number OF people of all classes, including
many prominent Gentiles as well as Nor
mons.
The funeral services were conducted
by Bishop Watson, of the Nineteenth
ward, and the music was rendered
by the choir of the same ward.
Joseph Derbidge offered the open
ing prayer and was followed
by Bishop Whitney, who delivered a
beautiful discourse. His utterance were
most appropriate, and the selection
OF words showed excellent judgment
on the part of the speaker.
Following him, A. NJ. Cannon made
some brief remarks. The remains,
which lay in a beautiful silver-mounted
casket, covered over with floral tributes,
were then viewed by those present and
were closed from sight forever.
A long line of carriages followed the
hearse to the city cemetery, and all that
was mortal of Mrs. Hooper was laid away
by the side of her husband, and after a
brief and impressive ceremony the grave
was filled and the mourners came away.

portunity to show the intolerance and
deceit so characteristic of its leaders, and
again history repeated itself.
Two years ago, certain heavy tax
payers asked the Council to grant them
temporary relief, but as the petitioners
belonged to that "hated and disreputa-
BILE" class known as "liquor men," q
great amount of buncombe was expended
by members OF the band" Indeed,
one long-haired exhorter, practically a
stranger, addressed the Council in opposl-
ton to the petition, admitting III his
opening remarks, that he had not IN
formed himself as to the question at issue,
and then proceeded to deliver the old
moss-covered lecture, and said, among
other things that "no other business
came begging for relief"
Several letters concerning the matter
at issue appeared in the local papers, and
one was so ''meaty" that preserved it.
l desire to copy the "peroration, as it is
to the point.
Gas to begging, | will venture to assert
that the reverend gentleman has done
more of it through the artistic modes OF
the church than all the liquor men inter
ested will ever do, and that his eve has
often twinkled when he heard the gener-
GUS half dollar of the liquor man. fall
among the pennies of his deacons. 1t
really looks as if filthy lucre had some
thing to do with this opposition to the
liquor business, as it is opposed and
oppressed to the point when the last dol
lar can be extracted from it. Then oppo-
sition ceases. They will proceed no fur
Their. The truly good don't ask for
prohibition, which is in the power of the
city; oh, no, they want the money. In
the last great day, when the liquor man
is to be called to account for the occupa-
ton he has followed in this life, he will

that frauds and shams must also come to
the front and settle.''

The Herald in to-days issue publishes a
Il name in connection with the houses which
were pulled the night before last. The name
does not appear on the docket. The Mar

in that book are linked together with deeds
never committed by the owners of them, and
this, more than likely, is one of them.
John Bergen, the cohab., who has been in
the Pen on an infinite number of counts,
and who is now awaiting sentence, on a
polygamy conviction, took the poor debtors
oath before Commissioner Mckay to-day
and was given his liberty. Bergen's case
will be remembered as a very disgusting one
in detail. He is under bonds pending an
appeal in the polygamy case, on which he is
likely to get another big dose.

furiously up Main street, turned west on
Second South, and was stopped in front of
Pavey & Walden's store. The driver, and
the little girl who was with him, were thrown

Verify, ga Daniel come to judgment!
Yea, a Nc" The Tribune, by its silence,
endorses the position which, to an I'M
prejudiced observer, seems similar to
that of the liberal Pilgrims who come to
this country to worship as they deemed
proper and compel others to do the same.
So long as the selling of ''vinous bever-
ages" is licensed, the sellers ought to be
entitled to respectable treatment, but
this appears to be out OF the question.
A small Puritanical class in our midst,
